I’ve heard that’s a thing - people spend the morning in church being told that they’re better than everyone else and then they carry that attitude with them when they go out to eat after church. It takes them a few hours to sober up and remember how to human.

Bonus points if they complained about all the foreigners (French people) in Paris.

“Hey, here’s a useful thing that I recommend to people: <your work>”

It’s basically a compliment

You don’t seem to have an Nvidia Vulkan driver installed.

Your system can see the Intel and Nvidia GPUs, but it only sees an Intel Vulkan device and a software emulation device (llvmpipe).

Proton needs Vulkan for graphics to work.

We’ve all had Kerbal Space Program missions that went like that.

No, I mean that if lots of developers are using Denuvo wrong, it’s Denuvo’s fault for being too difficult to use correctly or not providing enough support to developers.

Even if it’s the developers using it wrong, if lots of developers are doing that then it’s a fault with Denuvo.

If one car hits something, it’s a problem with that car. If lots of cars keep hitting something, it’s a problem with the road.

Okay, but if lots of games are doing it wrong, it’s still Denuvo’s fault.

I remember hearing during lockdown that sales of business pants had tanked, but sales of business shirts hadn’t.

It was originally one computer that everyone connected to, it wasn’t a fleet of separate computers like Windows PCs.

12% of humans believe we aren’t apes

All humans are apes, those people more so than most.

A lot of writers apparently have no idea how to write interesting female characters. Some of the pushback from viewers / readers to increasing the number of female characters isn’t about the characters being female, it’s about them being bad characters. Boring, annoying, quippy, etc.

Nobody wants to admit that their movie flopped because it wasn’t very good, so they blame sexism. Or piracy, that one’s always popular.

it’s a good beginner distro because getting thrown into deep water is how one learns to swim

That’s… not how it works, for distros or for actual swimming. Usually when someone who can’t swim is thrown into deep water, they drown and/or reinstall Windows which is much the same thing.

Depends - would you be okay with it focusing on white history?

Isn’t this the guy who got called out for trying to use social media brigading to force Linux kernel rust patches through? There’s a good chance those stalkers are fictional.

It’s not 2024, and the inability to hide things has apparently just made it more blatant when we decide to ignore genocide.

Going along is easy until it ends with shit like the Holocaust.

Have you seen the reactions every time someone suggests it’d be nice if Israel stopped shooting people and taking their land? We’re pro-genocide now.

Obligatory reminder that the Third-of-a-Pound burger failed because people thought it was smaller than a Quarter Pounder, since it had a three in it instead of a four.

For games that aren’t fast moving, you don’t need 240fps in the first place.

I played an MMO at 40 FPS for years. With a freesync screen that matches the frame rate instead of stuttering or tearing, it still feels fine.

The benchmarks are against vanilla Wine. A lot of people are using the fsync patches, so ntsync is more about accuracy - things that didn’t work under fsync should work under ntsync.

Instead of choosing between accuracy and performance hacks, ntsync should do it properly.
